Best Answer

Without considering any effects of air resistance and wind, the angle of projection that delivers the greatest horizontal range is 45 degrees above the horizon. Anything different ... either more or less than 45 degrees ... reduces the range.

How do you calculate range of projectile from ground at A degrees if you know its range is 200 meters if its launched from height of 2 meters at A degrees?

You cannot. You need to know either the initial speed or angle of projection (A).

How many the range of projectile is maximum when it is projected at an angle?

At 45° angle.


How does the firing angle affect the power output?

The power output can remain constant, but the forces acting against the projectile will affect its range. The mass of the projectile and the amount of charge can be considered constants unless range changes. The elevation will then need to factor as a constant and the amount of charge will need to change accordingly. It depends on what is easier to change.


Why projectile angle increase when projectile range also increase?

Range of a projectileThe path of this projectile launched from a height y0 has a range d.In physics, a projectile launched with specific initial conditions in a uniform gravity field will have a predictable range. As in Trajectory of a projectile, we will use:g: the gravitational acceleration-usually taken to be 9.80 m/s2 (32 f/s2) near the Earth's surfaceθ: the angle at which the projectile is launchedv: the velocity at which the projectile is launchedy0: the initial height of the projectiled: the total horizontal distance travelled by the projectileWhen neglecting air resistance, the range of a projectile will beIf (y0) is taken to be zero, meaning the object is being launched on flat ground, the range of the projectile will then simplify toso to increase the range θ shoud vary from 0 to 45 and after 45 it starts decreasing.

How does the angle of launch affect the range and trajectory of the projectile?

Easy . Think of it like this. The higher you angle your catapult (or whatever your using.) The higher it will travel but it will have less power. If you have a lower angle you will have more power but it your projectile will hit the ground first. If you don't understand just play around with a slingshot and an empty can of soda. Or you could test it out this theory by playing around with angry birds ;)
